Happy to report that I found 2 cute Brazilian guys on a Friday morning at 10 am. 
 

so it seems that even at this insanely early time, you still can get serviced. 😛

WOW... can't wait to get back!

Hoping to go in a couple of weeks, but worried this may put me off! Has anyone been recently?

I agree. I'm looking for individual providers at this point. No shots available near me anyway and I'm all vaccined up to my eyeballs already!

I'm just wondering if anyone has been to Thermas in the last couple weeks?

Are you noticing a drop off in that sauna scene with the Monkeypox Virus happening?

Interesting Study out today from the University of Barcelona

https://www.biospace.com/article/monkeypox-serious-but-not-a-global-pandemic-experts-say/

Any update from anyone who's been to Thermas in July/August (in light of monkeypox)?  Has Thermas been active or quiet?

I have trip planned but I am confused on their travel restriction. I can do a PCR test.

But as far as vaccination is concern I have had my 'booster shot' in November 2021.

Their website says:

Vaccines are valid from 14 days after the last dose up to 270 days. If more than 270 days (9 months) have passed since receiving the last required dose of their COVID-19 vaccine, U.S. citizens must show proof of having received a booster shot. The booster shot certificate is valid since the day it was administered.

I don't understand the last part. My booster shot is past 270 days but are they only talking about the 270 days for the second dose of the vaccine?

it looks like if your last vaccine dose is over 9 months, you have to show the booster, that is valid since the day that was administrated?

where did you find this? I am going to Barcelona in November so i keep checking travel restrictions..

Also, the US airlines usually advise their US travelers what is required for the destination country and what is required for you return to U.S

I was recently there and they were closed for a private party. I would just check before heading over.  I was so disappointed to miss it. 
 

Also, the way I understand it, it’s 270 from final dose, but once you’re boosted they don’t check.  I was over 270 earlier this summer for another trip, and I was not questioned. The last trip, I did get a second booster.  The 270 days seems to refer only to the initial round.

I was in town with family for a few days but managed a short visit Saturday late afternoon. Was a good choose of boys (guess about 15-20), and I had time to have fun with two guys in about 45 minutes. I have particular taste  and requests and don’t speak Spanish but that works out fine. Seems to 50 that’s the going rate for 30 minutes. 
 

I’ll be back quite soon, this calls for another trip to one of my favorite places in the world.

One thing to consider about these rent boy saunas in Spain or Brazil. It only takes one to make an evening. Some of my more memorable experiences have been on days when the pickings were lean.

Hi I never been to the hiring saunas as of yet. Can you say from your recent visit if the majority of guys are from Spain & South America? Any good looking Eastern European guys working? I was in Barcelona once & I only went to the gay bars. Had a good time, but I enjoyed Madrid more

Agree with that  assessment. I have my Barcelona/Thermas trip all set for the 1st week of  November. If I am honest I am going to look (mostly) for providers. I will enjoy the city sightseeing,but it will be a 75/25 fun/tourist 

I found this very cheap internal airline so I may visit Zurich. I hope I can find some other locations with providers closer to Barcelona. 
especially now that:

- the Euro and the Pound are leveled up -with the $

- we are in-between pandemics ;/ 

- the political climate it may become more volatile next year  

 

so in few words: enjoy while I can 😳🌞👀

Usually it is 80% or more brazilians/latinos but this time I think it was 100% but there were around 6-8 guys available. Sauna hiring makes it worth a lot more if you hire multiple guys or find the right one because it is cheap and can try a few. But when it comes to barcelona, a lot of guys actually offer 30 min (media hora) in the range of 50-70e so it is not that bad when you hire them outside as well. Even the full hour can be 100e easily, though the famous guys would go for 150e firm on internet. I really don't know why they have such weird pricing, maybe the internet hiring is not as good as you would imagine or it has too much hassle. In Sauna, good escorts are almost guaranteed to have multiple hires a day, so it might work for them well as well. Anyway, I feel like you can have a lot of fun in Barcelona even without going to the sauna. I used to go to thermas almost always when i am in barcelona but during the summer, I was worried about the MP, so i decided to hire outside and things were equally fun. It requires a bit of preparing and doing the searches online beforehand.

After a week in Barcelona i will say that Thermas is the only place where it was good to be, the rest of BCN not so much.

I had big hopes for my first time in Barcelona, but i am disappointed. it seems like i am all alone in this assessment because people ravish about the city. 

The place called Boyberry avoid it at all costs. once i passed my 50s i knew that it will get harder to meet good guys, but Boyberry is rude, small, and not good for anyone over 40, and make sure to keep your wallet in the front packet or better just take the exact money.

i had the best time with this Venezuelan guy

25. 62. black hair. slim swimmer body.

Part two:

Wednesday was a blast. It is the so called "client day" a bit cheaper but they have more guys. once you entered a lot o boys were asking me for a private, but i was going to scan the place before making a decision, boy i was right to wait. 

Most of the guys are Latinos or Caribbean, including Brazil. this one was my 3rd time in the place. I went straight to the bar downstairs to get my drink and look around. There were some handsome guys, but not really my taste so i stayed away from the bar and just told those persistent guys that i was waiting for a friend - is not that didnt stop them to show me their hard on :)

Then the tall Venezuelan guy showed up and he was the only one not trying to get any attention. he was one of the few clean cut ( a lot of beards and hairy, not my type) 

i went straight to the Venezuelan and he was so handsome and sweet, we went to the room. i bet you know, but besides the locker you ask for a key for the private room then they will charge you once you give the room back. 

as soon as we were behind closed doors the Venezuelan guy went started to kiss me, i love to kiss hot guys and is very hard to find good ones that kiss too. We had a great time, but the room was so hot that we changed to the VIP room - the entrance is in front of everyone. the room was lovely: has a king bed with mirrors, it was very clean and spacious, it has a mini bar, a no shower bathroom. We had such a great time that i invited him to eat and to my hotel.

He took me to a Venezuelan restaurant, great food. And in my hotel he was even better. I was in love lol. 

i will keep a journey of my trip and post edited versions since my writing skills are subpar 

As i type this I am at the BCN airport, 5:30  am, in my way to Zurich to stay there 3 days.

Back from a great trip.

 I met a lot of hot guys.

Barcelona: Axel hotel in the Eixample. Nice hotel with a great location. 

 I never went to the rooftop bar at Axelhotel. 

 The room is pretty nice but the distribution was odd, the shower is further up by the balcony, and the toilet is in the hallway.

You can draw on the curtains so other guests can see you.

The staff was pretty friendly 

Crowd mix of heterosexual/gay couples and solo guys.

 

When I went to Sauna Thermas on Monday, like 1 PM,  it was too early for the guys,  the front desk guy told me to come back after 4 pm 

En the meantime I went to the 3 other saunas:

  • Casanova: the less bad of all, like most of the saunas in every city there is a bunch of people just walking and walking and walking. 
  • Condal: I lasted 10 minutes, it was smelly and kind of depressing, it has a lot of potential with a 3 floors and a lot of rooms, it may have had better times, long time ago
  • Bruc: as an older men I was looking forward to get to this sauna since it is for a 55 and older crowd. But it was a lot of attitude and I thought could meet some young daddy chasers, but nope!

Tips for the saunas:

Bring your own sandals, at least you want to wear the ones they’ll give you, I didn’t want to wear that. 

For payment, in Thermas, you just back to your locker and pick up the cash. The boys can’t follow you to the area for the clients locker, that make it feel safe, but I didn’t see any hint of malice from the guys, but be alert

I went 3 times most of the guys repeat, a lot of Venezuelan and Colombian boys. 

I will continue in the next chapter 😍

Just got back from a short work trip. Visited the sauna twice. despite the chilly weather, I’d say about 20+ working boys were there. About 5 were sketchy/pushy, another ten were perfectly fine, but not my type. So I had a solid five each day to choose from and not a lot of patrons… maybe 15 on Sunday, which was their busiest day. Almost everyone was Hispanic, with the exception of a couple Nigerians and a baby faced white twink that looked like Jared Leto in Fight Club, I kid you not. Lots of Brazilians, Venezuelans and some new Colombians. Good times to be had.

 If you want to book at your hotel, forgo Romeo, literally every guy I tried to hire there flaked out. Just arrange something with one of the sauna boys and stay at TWO, it’sa five minute walk at most, and it’s a genuinely good quality gay hotel for pretty cheap. 24 hour bodega is a few feet away, as is a great egg breakfast place (skip the hotel buffet it’s terrible). Boyberry it’s also next door.

 Rates go from 50-100 euros depending on what you want, and be very clear beforehand.

 On a side-note, one of the escorts mentioned there is a gay brothel by the university. I might start a separate thread in that since there is literally no info on this. He said there’s an amazing selection of college boys for very cheap.
